You could: 1) Create 2 offsite copypools (say OFF1 and OFF2)
2) Day 1 - for each volume in OFF1 do move data volume stg=oFF2 reconstruct=yes done backup stg primarypool OFF2 Bring back all OFF1 volume that are offsite 3) Day 2 - for each volume in OFF2 do move data volume stg=oFF1 reconstruct=yes done backup stg primarypool OFF1 Bring back all OFF1 volume that are offsite 4) Day 3 - go to step 2 -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Aaron Becar Sent: Monday, October 31, 2005 1:16 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: BACKUP STG COMMAND Hey! In an effort to minimize the number of tapes that go off site, is there an option that I can add to the backup stg command to copy everything in the primary pool to the copy pool, and resets the previous copy, and creates a new copy? Thanks!
